City Planning

Children work in a group to plan and build a city with essential infrastructure. They learn what is required to run a town or city, what services the city provides, and how certain services are strategically placed within the city. They then work on building their plan in order to discover what works and what doesn’t.

Using proven curriculum students will build simple and motorized machines
learning about levers, pulleys, measurements, gear ratios, and much
more. Children work in small groups to first build mechanisms based on
lesson instructions and when familiar with the challenge children will
be asked to improve on the design.
